Bob Marley was a Rastafarian reggae artist who was instrumental in bringing Jamaican music to the world stage.
Known for his hits like No Woman No Cry and, of course, One Love, Bob is responsible for the best-selling reggae album of all time and is also among the best-selling artists of all time.
He sadly passed at the age of 36 – after he and Rita survived an assassination attempt five years prior.
His cause of death was melanoma, a form of skin cancer. Bob is survived by Rita, Ziggy, ten more children, and numerous grandchildren.
